GOOD NEWS: Coming out of Windsor, Ontario this week, it has been reported that Avro Lancaster FM212 will be moved from a temporary storage area to a permanant facility at the Windsor Airport where restoration to taxiable condition will commence.

Spitfire JG 891 took to the skies once again on Nov. 2, 2006 after a long restoration by Historic Aircraft Ltd. in the UK. It’s interesting to see a Spitfire in tropical kit.
